Support Virginia Families This Holiday Season

Across Virginia, families are feeling the strain of high costs and economic uncertainty. Many are struggling to keep up and are turning to their community food bank for help.

Your gift today provides more than meals — it brings comfort, stability, and hope to our neighbors in need. Every dollar makes a difference, and every meal counts.

This holiday season, join us in making sure no one goes hungry. Give now — because hunger doesn’t take a beak.

The Federation of Virginia Food Banks is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit state association of Virginia’s food banks affiliated with Feeding America and is the largest hunger-relief network in the state. We support our seven member food banks by providing food and funding, and leading state-wide advocacy efforts. We also facilitate learning and the sharing of best practices throughout the Commonwealth. Your donation will help people across the state of Virginia.
